Probability figure infections vs sample size

3 views (last 30 days)
I need to write a code to make a figure showing the probability of seeing one or more infections vs. sample size
The infection rate is 0.9 per 9000, or 0.0001

1st, clarify the probability distribution and then generate the population with the given probability values. MATLAB has a few random number generators which can be employed.

Hi,
You could first create a set of sample sizes. Based on that, you derive the number of people with infections based on the given probability. I have tried it with 5 sample of different sizes below.
x=[100 200 300 400 500];%Sample population size
y= x.*0.0001; %probable number of people with infections
plot(x,y)
Hope this helps!
